Chapter 8: Death Notice
He asked me to sit nearby. When everything is ready, take out a rattle and shake it.
Sometimes he rings the bell, sometimes he recites words, and he looks like it. It reminds me of the Taoist priests in the village in the past, and the Taoist priests are very lively when they do things, and they look amazing, but they are often useless. On the other hand, my grandfather, although I haven't seen him perform any decent moves, everyone in every village believes in him.
After a while, they put the bell over the candle flame, and a flame burned on the bell out of thin air, and he pressed the bell on a yellow talisman and waved it, and the yellow talisman instantly ignited, burned to ashes, and fell into a bowl of water.
Mr. Chen took the bell and seemed to be done. I vaguely thought of something, and two or three cold sweats broke out on my head with a wry smile. The heart said no, no, no, shouldn't be, is his method of treating me so common, so suspenseless, so questionable of practicality......
"Drink it." He handed me the water fused with rune ash.
I'll go! Really!
Looking at the water, which was dyed gray-black and had a complex composition, I instinctively resisted. The heart said that it should be a good medicine, anyway, there is no occasional yellow, what kind of snake, insect, rat ant ingredient in the potion...... When I think about it, I feel that this water is more complicated.
"Lhotse, do you want me to help?" Wen Tsai said suddenly.
What did this kid do when I don't know? If I can let him succeed, I won't be surnamed Wang!
I gritted my teeth, picked up the talisman water, and drank it all. I thought it would smell like paper ash at most. I never thought that it would make me doubt life! I haven't eaten Coptis chinensis, but I think it's probably the same thing. This bowl of water is like the essence of thousands of bitter gourds, which is unspeakably bitter and bitter to the hometown!
So that as soon as I got into my stomach, I immediately turned over the river and the sea, the liver and intestines were in severe pain, and the chest and abdomen seemed to be cut by a thousand knives.
I was shocked myself, this thing was so powerful.
Mr. Chen's face changed, he pressed one hand to my chest, his eyes widened, he looked at me, and exclaimed: "I thought you had just suffered a catastrophe and had a thin life, but I didn't expect that there was such a vicious trick hidden!" ”
Vicious tricks! What else is hidden in my body? Grandpa didn't tell me anything other than give me a talisman to remind me of that!
"Old first...... Ahem...... Sir, aren't you scaring me, I'm still ...... Cough...... What other tricks are hidden? After that bowl of runic water, my whole body was in pain, and my chest was even more stuffy, and I couldn't say anything.
He couldn't help but pinch me in a few places, and his subordinates used their strength, making me feel pain inside and out. I almost wondered if I had inadvertently offended him, so I waited for an opportunity to get revenge.
After pinching it, he shook his head: "Yin poison Yin poison, really yin poison, it was actually buried with a ghost curse!" The person who saved you should have tried his best to help you seal the ghost spell to save your life, I heard you mention your grandfather before, the person who saved you should be your grandfather, if it weren't for your closest relatives, I'm afraid no one would be willing to sacrifice their lives to save you. ”
I couldn't help but be stunned, if it weren't for my closest relatives, no one would be willing to sacrifice their lives to save me...... If it is said that when the sixth brother was first killed, his grandfather actually saved him, but because the price was too great, he didn't save him......
I dispelled my thoughts, it was all about Chen Sesame and rotten grain, and besides, the sixth brother was cold at that time, can it be the same as my situation.
I clutched my aching chest with one hand and said with difficulty, "Can I still be saved from this situation?" ”
He looked at me, his expression showed a little entanglement, and after a while, he sighed: "If you are safe and stable in this life, without disasters and disasters, you can spend this life in peace, but when the gods descended in this Mid-Autumn Festival, they collided with the sneaky and triggered the ghost curse that had been buried for many years, to tell the truth, I ...... Can't save you. ”
"So what will happen to me?"
"At most thirteen days, seven holes bled to death!"
I was stunned, meaning I only had thirteen days to live. It's really fake, this old man can't be fooling me, right? I have been sick for more than ten years, and I finally got healthy for two years, but I haven't had time to do anything good to make up for my childhood and repay the society, so I just left? Two days ago, I was sitting in a coffee shop, chatting with middle school girls, enjoying a hard-won comfortable life, and suddenly I was told that I had thirteen days left in my life.
Despite all the doubts in my heart, I was surprisingly calm, this death prediction came so suddenly that even the way of death was clearly told to me. Q: How many people in the world are treated like this? Only, why thirteen? The number thirteen is not very good, why not come to seven seven forty-nine days, nine nine eighty-one days.
"Hey! What nonsense are you talking about! How could he die if he was so good? Wen Tsai said angrily.
Wen Zai's grandmother and second uncle couldn't believe it, I was not related to them, but I came here and had an accident and died, and they couldn't afford it.
Wen Tsai's grandmother said, "Old man! He can't die at such a young age! You've got to figure it out! ”
"I have limited ability, and I really can't do anything." He said.
Maybe he saved me, but he just had to pay the same price as my grandfather did back then, so he didn't want to. But this is understandable, it's not a relative, it's hell to save desperately in the dead.
"But—" He turned.
I was rekindled with hope, and there was still a turnaround!
"I can continue your life as much as I can, it's hard to say how long I can last, I have to wait until I solve the children's problems, and then I can't decide," he said, "Helping you continue your life is bound to drain your vitality, and I don't know what the children's condition is, so I have to solve this matter first." ”
When Wen Tsai's grandmother heard this, she hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, make sure the children are okay first, old man, you go to the hospital to take a look, my grandson has been unconscious and has a high fever!" ”
Mr. Chen nodded, looked at me, and said, "I can't help you for the time being, but I can suppress your symptoms for the time being and make you feel better." ”
After that, he took out a piece of rune paper folded into a square from his backpack and handed it to me: "You put it on your chest, and it will be much better." ”
Now, if you can be comfortable, you can be more comfortable. It's all people who are going to die.
I took the talisman paper and did as he was told, and a cool sensation came out, gradually spreading, and the pain in my body, and the dizziness and burning sensation of fever gradually faded. I'm amazed, this thing is really useful, and it works quickly!
Mr. Chen packed his things and prepared to follow Wen Tsai and them to the hospital. It seems that Wenzai's grandmother and second uncle are also going together.
"I'll go too." I say.
